"I've wanted to work with Paulina for years and Kelly did the UK show for me and did a brilliant job. So, it was a very easy decision to put these three together and you hope it's going to work and they're going to get on well. And luckily they did."

And apparently Demi is feeling the love like never before as she added:

"The whole cast this year, there's something really special about it. And when we come together I feel it’s actually a family, which is actually so rare and I feel like it never happens, especially on these shows."

Awww, we think we got a cavity just reading that!

But we sure hope Simon still brings his sassy, eye-rolling attitude with him this season!

“The perception that people had of me completely changed because there are no cue cards, there’s no script, it wasn’t be performing a song. It was, ‘Let’s see your real personality.’ My core is a genuine human being who roots for other people. I didn’t want to blow smoke up their ass. I wanted every contestant to leave with something that they could remember.”
